This class intended to collect TODO comments from java/c++/etc source files.

Example:

// TODO: add try...catch block for IOException
InputStream is = new FileInputStream(path);

This function returns a Date object being set at 12 A.M. It is useful for comparing dates where you don't know if they'll come set at the beginning of the day or not.

(NB: The line: sb.append( "n" ) ; SHOULD have a leading slash ie: sb.append( "\n" ) ; but the formatter seems to remove it...

Write a set of bytes into a 'so-called' binary file. The point is that we use BinaryWriter here and we have a byte array as input.

Here's a nifty trick I often use for testing.

Lets say you have a c:\foo\lib directory full of jarfiles for log4j, javamail...whatever.

Modern J2EE containers do a nice job of letting you deploy a jarfile with your code and have a lib directory full of jarfiles like this, but what if you just want to run a quick client from the command line?

Here's what you do:
